Import Tips
• Include chemical analysis reports verifying <0.75% nickel typical for 430 grade to support low-nickel declaration
• Label shipments clearly as 'cold-formed only' to prevent confusion with hot-rolled products under 7221
• Watch for customs queries on 'stainless' status; ensure min 10.5% chromium content is documented
